What Happens Next?
  • Transactions route to the next approver (if any).
  • As needed, transactions can be audited considering the following:
    • For iBudgets, iJournals, Expense Requests (Expense Reports, Advance Requests, Non-PO Payments and Petty Cash replenishments), Labor Distribution Adjustment or PCard workflows approved by a Vacation Delegatee, the original approver's name will show as the approver. The Action History will show the SUNet ID of the actual Delegatee approver in the comments field, after any comments entered by the original approver.
    • For Requisitions (iProcurement non-catalog, SmartMart and Amazon Business) approved by a Vacation Delegatee, the Approval History will include Delegated in the row with the original approver's name, and the Notes will include any message entered by the original approver when they established the Vacation Rule. The name in the next row is the Vacation Delegate, and their actions will appear in the status column.
